Dedicated to Florentino Pérez.


Consummate professional most likely stays for another year with us.

What are your expectations for him this season? Can we expect some sulking, deflation? Or just another world class season...

 

[Mali_Zeus]

I expect him to be professional, no sulking or sthing, you're an United player (although you hate it), do a job you're hired to do.

 

[Sunny Jim]

I'm hoping he stays. With all the changes to our team we need some stability in key areas. feck the fee, he might be the difference between us winning a trophy this season. Trophies > monies.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

Fully expect another world class season from him, but won't enjoy it as much because I know he'll f*ck off to Madrid for nothing next summer.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

I don't doubt he has genuine affection for the club, so I don't see his performance levels dropping off in the slightest. Also, he'll want to be Spains number 1 at the Euros next year, and I don't think if he does end up staying, he'll be that bothered, as he'll get a whopping multi-million dollar pay out next year.

 

[vodrake]

If he stays he will definitely give his all for the season, and hopefully helps lead us to a trophy. LVG has repeatedly mentioned how professional he's been about the situation, and with the Euro's coming up next year he wouldn't want to end up not being first choice for Spain by being benched the entire year for sulking.

 

[m1y2]

Next summer will be a tough one they will need to buy a keeper and a striker..

 

[Rooney in Paris]

He'll pen a new deal at the end of the season when we've won the PL and the CL, with him being instrumental in both races, of course.

 

[mu4c_20le]

He will sign.

 

[Cheesy]

Fully expect another world class season from him, but won't enjoy it as much because I know he'll f*ck off to Madrid for nothing next summer.

Pretty much this. If he does stay, I expect he'll perform superbly again, but I'd be shocked if he stays for more than that year.

 

[Danny Boi]

I believe the reports that De Gea was genuinely torn in deciding between here and Madrid and that he has really enjoyed his time here.He is only 24 and sure he will not resent spending 1 more year here.Even if he does resent it, he is a professional and I would expect him to act like it.

 

[RDCR07]

I don't think he is going to sulk even if he is going to leave for free next year. He knows much more is at stake. He has buddies here and one year will run pretty quickly. He knows what we have done for him these past 4 years, especially Fergie shielding him and he will be ever grateful for that. I think he will give us one more good year and then be off.

 

[LeftyBlaster]

Sign an extension?

 

[lem8sh]

I expect him to have a great season for Madrid.

 

[DocRockter]

Stays with his BFFs Mata and Herrera and together lifts one or two trophies by the end of the season..

 

[arthurka]

Come on David get your hands out of these gloves and sign the bloody contract.. We know deep down you really want to..

 

[FC Ronaldo]

Top 15 saves from last year... Jesus

 

[spontaneus1]

Some of those save are superhuman...

 

[Tommy]

Fair play if you keep this guy for another year. The proposed fee was nowhere near enough to consider going 12 months without him between the pegs.

I reckon he'll just get on with it. No sulking or anything like that. Just 100% every game until he either leaves or signs a new contract.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

Not sure how to feel about de Gea this season, I'm sure he'll play brilliantly but he's still f*cking off next year.

 

[Raw]

The Euros are coming up, throwing a tantrum and playing like shit is not what's best for De Gea's chances in the Spanish NT.

 

[Pexbo]

I think he'd happily stay. I'm positive it's his girlfriend and his family that is pushing him for the move and he's actually quite happy here with his United amigos. So if United don't budge it's a happy excuse.

 

[wr8_utd]

It's worth losing him on a free to have someone making those saves for another year. And he will be at his best because there's a spot at the Euros up for grabs.

 

[Raw]

It'd also be annoying having to replace him so quickly if United do end up selling him. With 4 new players and a possible 2 more, we need to ensure the defence keeps it's stability with De Gea in goal. Then we'll have time to assess the perfect replacement before getting him early in the next summer window.

 

[LR7]

Not sure how to feel about de Gea this season, I'm sure he'll play brilliantly but he's still f*cking off next year.

And for free as well.

 

[ottosec]

I'm still hoping we might make some kind of swap with Ramos.

I'm sure he is professional enough to give his best, but every single mistake will be scrutinized this season and almost certainly he will have a at least a part of the crowd on his back if he doesn't perform at a very high level. He will be the player under most pressure from the fans to perform next season.

 

[AltiUn]

Calling it, he's going to surpass Neuer this year, no basis for this other than how rapidly he's grown over the last two years

 

[ZDwyr]

In a way, if he stays and continues to improve it will be a bit sad knowing that he will definitely be leaving at the end of the season. Will make it harder to enjoy his performances.

 

[ChaddyP]

The Euros are coming up, throwing a tantrum and playing like shit is not what's best for De Gea's chances in the Spanish NT.

he could have another blinder like last season. still wont affect the outcome for him at euros.

 

[Rooney in Paris]

Calling it, he's going to surpass Neuer this year, no basis for this other than how rapidly he's grown over the last two years

I thought he was already better this year, to be honest. He had an absolutely incredible season, and was instrumental in getting us fourth. Obviously Neuer is coming off the back of a World Cup and won the league with his team, and De Gea only finished fourth, but individually I felt he had a better season.

 

[Relevated]

I think he'd happily stay. I'm positive it's his girlfriend and his family that is pushing him for the move and he's actually quite happy here with his United amigos. So if United don't budge it's a happy excuse.

Its goalkeeper heaven for him here. He makes loads of saves, impresses everybody, gets a lot of experience. You're probably right.

 

[LawCharltonBest]

If he stays, he might part ways with his smokin hot girlfriend over the course of the year. I'm sure Ed would be there with a £200k-per-week contract for him to wipe his tears on.

 

[Damien]

Starts tonight.

 

[Mali_Zeus]

From his body expression it's obvious he wants to leave us.

Is that Chicharito near him?

 

[Damien]

From his body expression it's obvious he wants to leave us.

Is that Chicharito near him?

Yeah, telling him what to expect at Real.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

So good at goal. Distribution so so, but again...so good at goal.

 

[LR7]

He just exudes confidence these days.

 

[The Man Himself]

This cnut needs to stay this season. So good he is.

 

[ChaddyP]

I have changed my mind. I dont want to swap him for ramos. I just want him alone even if it means mcnair and blackett in defence. Feck you Perez

 

[ZDwyr]

I knew he would save that 1v1. It will be a sad day when I no longer have that confidence in our GK. His distribution seemed rusty. Although a lot of last season he had Fellaini to aim at too so that probably helped him.
